Caroline Olaseinde shifts focus

IN her days, Caroline Rhodes, nee Olaseinde, was the quintessential party queen. She hobnobbed with the high and mighty and had women who dictated the pace of things within the social scene as friends. But all that came to an abrupt halt when the former senior manager with Exxon Mobil Oil decided to quit spinsterhood.

Her decision to marry a pilot, Captain Lanre Rhodes, was fraught with its own drama. But many had thought that her disappearance from the social scene was only temporary, expecting her re-emergence shortly after settling down.

How shocked they were when she, instead, chose to stay off the social scene completely and raise a family. With the coming of her twin girls which came in her 40s, Caroline cannot be happier and contented with her bundles of joy, both of whom she prefers to the ephemeral joy that partying offered her.
